Harris6310 Posted May 27, 2010 Author Share Posted May 27, 2010 I am starting my own small website hosting business but I have no idea what to call it. I was going to go for Awesomesauce Hosting, but that sounded a bit un-professional. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHappySmore Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Do you have a group of friends helping you host? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentdemonic Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 When choosing a name it should be something easy to spell, try not to have it as a phrase, clear to look at if made into a logo and also does not offend.I have a friend who refuses to watch anything that has the word Devil in, so he doesnt even play Devil May Cry - you don't want to turn people away.If you are going to use a long name be warned that while it can work for you and get you up in the google rank as you may end up with less competitiors for your keywords from domain name, people will have to type that.There is a newish domain suffix called .me and while a lot of people have made use of it such as lookat.me most people may not trust a website ending in .me - do your very best to secure a .com.Hypens are a no no, it gives room for competitiors to steal the unhyphenated address from you should you become mega successful.So with all that in mind I would suggest one of the following three with the idea of being short, sweet, fun and professional but budget costing.trustedwebspace.comindiewebhosts.comharrishosts.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHappySmore Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 @silentdemonic:> trustedwebspace.com> indiewebhosts.com> **harrishosts.com**I was going to say harrishosts.com, I just wanted to be sure he was doing it alone. Either that or harriscanhost.com or harrishosting.com. My personal favorite in that list is indiewebhosts.com though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balliztik1 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Trustedwebspace sounds untrustworthy, in my opinion. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSchilli1 Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Hi, All!Who cares about professioniality? Youre an eclipse member!awesomesauceand also, im trying to start my own, too, but i need a computer that can run ubuntu server.-JS1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ispan Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Hmm.I would stay away from that "Un-Professional" name. You don't want to limit your customers to eclipse only, i mean, who in there right mind would buy hosting from "Awesomesauce Hosting" it just sounds retarded.On another note, are you running your own servers (Dedicated, VPS, ect) or just using a reseller plan?

Harris6310 Posted May 31, 2010 Author Share Posted May 31, 2010 I'm looking in to it. I wan't to set up my own server, but if I can't, I'll use a reseller plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ispan Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 See, you have to be careful,If your using a reseller plan you have very limited control over your network and what not, the main reason i asked. Your host could just turn your server off and you would be stuck with clients wanting to use your services.Any way this is going way off topic,No i would not buy hosting off you for the reason stated above, and you sound like the stupidest company based off the name.
